GIVING BIRTH TO NEW LAWS
 Thinking of how many ways the government should fantasize for better policies give the people an unpredictable new society.
             In the time of President Marcos when Marshall Law and abusive authorities  were rampant, laws were given by few self-proclaimed “Makamasang Politiko”. It was not hard for them to implement such policies because  people on that time were like puppets played by their governmental ventriloquists.
But now, with enlightened men and women; who  are now able to distinguish the RIGHT ONE from PROMINENT ONE, it will become the   dilemma for the position of the government. They cannot create laws without objections and without villain.
             This is not like the old society wherein people chose Fernando Poe Jr. rather than Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Our country is not a stage nor an action field for some guy who just wanted to served without skills.
             With all the laws that had been passed, the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012 was most controversial that President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino had signed without handshakes and photographs. This law provides funds for contraceptives and hardens the knowledge about family planning. This also explains why the Catholic Bishop Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) are eager to settle the issue on public saying that the law destroys the sanctity of life and promotes abortion.
             This just it. A never ending issue about human and their heinous sins. But the fact is the church cannot provides the public the needed attention to overcome the augmenting cases of malnutrition for kids, overpopulation, as well as being ignorant to the true unstoppable realities of our country.
This is not all about  the bible.
             On the other hand, laws like Sin Tax and Cybercrime are just waste of time. We live in a democratic country wherein freedom to speak and stand for yourself are always legal. In layman’s term, “chismis” with sense and freewill.
             Let us not consider the government as the only institution which can help us to have better lives. Lawmakers are not our bosses. The true bosses here are ourselves. We should let be responsible for all the things that are happening in this country for we all live inside this one world that we are free to choose and live our own life — with or without laws.

Lowell Thomas and A short-cut to Distinction

ALPHABET SERIES /part 12/ The ability to speak is a short-cut to distinction. It puts a man in the limelight, raises him head and shoulders above the crowd. And the man who can speak acceptably is usually given credit for an ability out of all proportion to what he really possesses. Dale Carnegie claims that any man can talk when he gets mad. He says that if you hit the most ignorant man in town on the jaw and knock him down, he will get on his feet and talk with an eloquence, heat, and emphasis that would have rivaled William Jennings Bryan in his palmiest days. He claims that almost any man can speak acceptably in public if he has self-confidence and an idea that is boiling and stewing within him. The way to develop self-confidence, he says, is to do the thing you fear to do and get a record of successful experiences behind you. -- from the book How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie <A short-cut to Distinction by Lowell Thomas> ...

One Hundred

There are songs behind all those smiles and there are anthems behind all those sadness. But I always find myself creating anthems. Isn't the world more cruel than Ares? Or this is just my mind full of inconsistencies and fragments of overwhelming grief? I sat at the corner facing the darkness of a room and holding my cheap and out of tune guitar. I write it. All my feelings are processing in just a single drop of blood. It is so amazing how the blood runs through a piece of paper transforming itself into an organize tint. The tint says it all. First, that I am waiting to see your face. Hoping that on one enchanting day, I will see your glooming smile, your soft lips and the overly wonderful lashes playing on your eyes in that fast food chain and are awaiting my return. Second, that I will receive this one simple and sweet message; "I miss you." Third, that we will be able to hold each others hands while walking in the busy street full of honking and shouting. Fourth,...

October's Fall

ALPHABET SERIES /part 15/ The day you came to my life wasn't an expectation. Since then, I never noticed that you were entering my life in just a few enchanting moments. Yah, I know that this quite exaggerating but all I can say, "BEING WITH YOU WAS THE SWEETEST ALLEGATIONS OF MY MIND TO MY HEART." I found myself guilty of loving you with non-bailable case. Yes, we were luckily in love with each other but our love was not forever I should say. I'm sorry if I came this to far when at the end I had to bid goodbye. Goodbye was the word for farewell, "WE WERE FALLING APART." You said to me intermittently that you were mine; that you built your own happiness with me. It sounded like my forever, shouting through my veins and creating a flow of tenderness. But time flew so fast that feelings were eviscerated and forever was ended. Loving you was my past and now MY HEART WAS COLD AS ICE IN TERMS OF YOUR NAME. You came to my life unexpectedly like m...
